Since this last update that sony rolled out to the my phone my bluetooth will not work at all. I can turn bluetooth on but I get a message that pops up immediately that says Bluetooth share has stopped with an X and close app message. If I tap close app the message disappears and bluetooth turns off and turns back creating the same problem over and over. I cannot turn off bluetooth from the quick settings bar, I have to go into settings and turn it off. Anyone else with this issue or have a workaround or fix for it?
Bluetooth notifier won`t go away
I have a problem where I have a message that pops up and says, "Bluetooth Share keeps stopping."
It has, "Close App" with an X beside it. (only option)
I tap it and it reappears a second later.
I've painstakingly gotten into settings (constantly closing this notifier) and opened Bluetooth and it`s not on so I turned it on but no difference. (notice still popping up)
So I turned it back off (no difference).
I've restarted phone (still happens).
I've turned phone off for 5 minutes and turned back on (still does it).
I've just discovered I can turn it off by sliding down from the top while locked but after a second or 2 it starts blinking so I open it and find it's back on.
Last app I installed was Torque Pro but uninstalled it when this problem arose, thinking it was trying to connect to my OBD2 scanner.
I managed to get a screen shot after many attempts but can't send it as the notifier keeps interrupting.
Wow, no idea why but it's just now stopped doing it after hours of pain.
What the hell?

ever tried on pc companion repair?
No I haven't.
I wasn't aware this phone used it.
All my Sony's have always installed it or accessed it the moment I plugged it in but this phone never did or needed it to exchange files so I figured it didn't use it

hi all! I've been wondering ever since receiving my TP2, how can I set it so that the device resumes from standby/lock mode to the last screen that was active? Right now, it seems to restores only to the today tab.
For e.g. if I am using Notes and switch the device to standby using the on/off button, turning it back on takes me to today tab...
this question has just been asked in another thread called "Restore last tab after standby".
I have checked this issue for you and it does not account for me. When I switch of my TP when in, FI, Coreplayer and switch it on again, it still displays Coreplayer, or whatever app that was open before going into standby.
hhmmm thanks. it seems to be related to the lock function...

When you are on that screen, tap on the item that says "Asus Zenwatch Connected" and you'll see the option to adjust tilt & wake.
thank you very much for the advise I was trying to find that setting aswel.

My Asus Zenwatch has been buggy as heck lately after the last few firmware updates. The main issue now is that the watch face lights up and comes on whenever I move or twist my arm or hand even though I've set and reset the shake to wake setting to "Off". I've tried resetting and rebooting the watch to no avail. I've noticed that the battery life on my watch has shortened now too as it does not even last a full day! I also used to be able to tap the watch face one time to wake it. Now it does not wake up unless I tap the face two or more times. Sometimes it can't wake up at all and is dead until I press the power reset button on the back of the watch.
It is also constantly vibrating every now and then every few minutes as if I got some notification or lost connection with the phone when none of those activities really happen. It just vibrates and then when I twist my arm up to look at it, it wakes up and lights up even though I have "Shake to Wake" mode turned "OFF"! WTF?

I know you said you reset your watch, but have you done a full factory reset? That should fix just about anything wrong with it...
If that doesn't work, try to pair it temporarily with another phone or perform a factory reset on your phone. Maybe there is an app on your phone causing the watch to go haywire.
Go to setting on Zenwatch and search system update, you will go to 5.1.1, the best version I have see on this watch. Then do a factory reset.
I think this will go fine

No that was not the problem. I was already on the latest updated firmware for awhile when all this bugginess happened. Factory resetting the watch did not help.
I did finally uninstall the Android Wear and the Asus Zenwatch Manager apps and cleared those apps data and cache. Then reinstalled them. Did this several times until I got the watch to connect properly and successfully and stay connected. I adjusted all the settings on the phone app itself instead of from the Asus Zenwatch itself and that seems to have fixed my issues. Twist to wake is really "Off" now and the watch does not keep vibrating every few minutes. So hopefully this will not get corrupted again in time (as it seems to have before).
Hi,
recently I started to use bluetooth because I bought a smart watch which requires bluetooth for smart notifications, ... Its been working great, until one day. Every time I didnt use smartwatch, I turned bluetooth off. And one day I tapped the icon to turn it on, and the bluetooth icon stayed pressed for a 5-6 seconds and then it went back white which means, it did not turn on. I tried everything, reboot, safe mod, recovery mode, force stop, ... Nothing worked. Then I did factory reset, which changed everything and bluetooth started to work again, but not for very long. After 2 days, exactly same thing happend and I have no idea what to do. Im pretty sure its a software problem, but no idea how to solve it. Please any ideas??
Thanks a lot.

Found this on another forum... I had the same problem and it got solved by following this.
What you need to do is clear the Bluetooth Share app cache and data, then perform a Network Settings Reset. I'd recommend doing it in that specific order.
First, open App Manager from Settings menu. Then use the three vertical dots on the top right to open the options. Select "Show System". Scroll to the Bluetooth Share app, and open up it's settings. Tap Storage. Tap Clear Cache, wait a moment, the cache will clear to 12.00KB. Now tap Clear Data.
Next, open the main Android settings again. Go to Backup & Reset, then Network Settings Reset. Tap Reset Settings and enter pin, if prompted. Tap Reset Settings one more time.
After that completes, which should be fairly instantly, try to turn on your Bluetooth. It should turn on! Yahoo! Let me know if this works for you!
Thanks to the original poster (I cannot post links here).
Okay so this started yesterday, 4/4/16
The OK Google prompt will work in terms of activating on my watch, but when I speak it wont connect to my phone and will eventually say it's offline even though there is no cloud icon showing im disconnected.
But, as soon as i turn the display on my phone on and repeat the prompt, OK google will function perfectly.
I ran a test 20 times with the phone display off and 20 times with it on. The watch was "offline" every time the display was off and worked perfectly by simply pressing the home button and turning the phone display on. I have a galaxy note 5.
Anyone else suffering the same problem?

I always thought that's how it was supposed to work? I thought the watch had to be on to "listen".
I have had a similar experience with my Note 4, but not as highly reproducible as yours. Sometimes "OK Google" did not work and showed "offline", but when I activated my phone, it worked instantly.
Samsung has some energy saving feature introduced for "battery optimization". I turned it completely off and the problem seems to have almost vanished. I think this battery optimization forces the Android Wear app on the phone to go to sleep so it won't listen anymore for incoming requests from the watch.
I also had huge delays in email reception with the battery optimization feature turned on.
So my advice: Turn it completely off and see if it solves your issue.
Hey y'all - hope someone can help. I'm on stock, non-rooted, att note 5. It's been working like a charm all these months that I've had it. Except yesterday, spontaneously out of NOWHERE, the bluetooth just turned itself off. In fact, it was working just fine all day, connected to my watch, got into my car and it connected there just fine. Even had a bluetooth call on the car's speaker. Left the car, and THAT'S when it happened. The BT icon just turned off (from the notification drawer). I tap on it, and it doesn't turn on. So I go into the BT settings directly, tap on the toggle switch, I watch it turn on for a split-second, then it just shuts off.
Now, here's the weird part, when I boot into safe mode, it works JUST FINE. All that happened recently were app updates, like the android wear app, but I didn't see any settings in the update that would cause this. ANYONE HAVE ANY CLUE?!
PLEASE HELP!
